A group of medical students locked in a research building for a role-playing game. Their game master is dead, and the test subject—a violent, hyper-intelligent baboon named Shakma—is loose in the halls. This 1990 sci-fi horror film turns a night of fantasy into a desperate fight for survival, as the students are hunted through sterile laboratories and dark corridors by a creature they helped create.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The director builds tension through the claustrophobic research facility setting, using shadowy corridors effectively. Pacing relies on chase sequences rather than character development.

This appeals to fans of straightforward 1990s creature features. Viewers will feel B-movie suspense but won't find layered storytelling. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Hugh Parks
